Sleep takes a third of a day from a person,Dividing our life into two parts. Thanks to sleep, we are recovering the forces that we spent during the working day or in the home. It is worth noting that any representative of the beautiful half of humanity will confirm that sleep also helps to prolong women's youth and beauty. The main thing is to get enough sleep.

Sleep depends largely on the bed linen we sleep on. Let's talk with you about what kind of material should be pillowcases, sheets and duvet cover.

Usually, sets of bed linen are sewn fromNatural and artificial fabrics. The natural fabrics include calico, coarse calico, silk. Yarn for artificial fabrics can be made entirely of polyester, and natural with the addition of polyester threads.

Let's look at the underwear, which is made of natural fabrics. Let's start with a material like Chintz.

Linen, sewn from this material, is notVery expensive, but at the same time it is practical and easy to care for. Chintz does not cause allergies, it perfectly passes air, static can not accumulate static electricity, it also can not dry, it also dries very quickly. The only drawback of this material is fragility. Bed linen from chintz, very quickly sheds, wears out due to washes and loses its appearance.

Philologists believe that the birthplace of cotton is India. It is in translation from this language that the chintz is a variegated one. The locals called it cotton cloth, which was variegated.

The following material, which we will consider, will be Coarse calico. It is a cotton fabric that consists of100% of cotton, and due to its density and strength, it is considered universal. From this material sew not only bedding, but also clothing. The name of this fabric, like the fabric itself, has oriental roots. The word coarse calico, relates both to Arabic and Turkic. Hapochay - the so-called best quality coarse calico, while silk - this is the worst grade. But let's go back to the main theme of the article - bed linen.

Stitched from coarse beddingWill last you much longer than chintz linen. It is very pleasant to the touch, not subject to deformation and shedding. It can be washed even at 60 temperature in a washing machine, the only drawback is that it does not give in to ironing, especially if it is completely dry.

Next comes batiste. This material in our time is made ofCotton, although previously the cambric was a linen cloth. The fabric got its name thanks to the master who had the surname Baptiste. He was the first person who received high-quality, thin and translucent fabric, besides very strong. ? More thinly flax, for this fabric was grown in a special way, for example, like grapes now. The field on which the flax was grown was driven into a large number of pegs for laying crossbeams. This design did not allow to lie down flax during the winds and rains. Such conditions favorably influenced the crops, which made it possible to obtain a very thin and strong fiber.

Due to the fact that the yarn needed constantlyKeep in a damp place, wove a cambric in the cellars. People who weaved batiste, unfortunately, did not live long, because they developed tuberculosis and subsequently died. The product woven from cambric, could afford only wealthy people, because the prices for such products were very large. A simple man could not afford to buy even a handkerchief.

Baptiste now is a cotton fabric. Bed linen, sewn from this material, is very light, has a transparent texture, it is very durable and pleasant in relation to the body. Linen from cambric is quite expensive and does not like frequent washing.

We pass to the Egyptian cotton - Satin. Lingerie from this material is very durable, goodCan withstand washing not only manually, but also in a typewriter. Linen does not crumple, has no propensity to shedding - in general, to sleep on such bed linen is a real pleasure. That's only in comparison with the cotton and chintz, bed linen made of satin is much higher.

Next we will tell you about such material as poplin. It can be of three types - silk, semi-silk andcotton. Not only bed linen, but also shirts, blouses, sweaters and other things are made from poplin. The name of the material has Italian roots and is translated as Catholic. How is tissue connected with religion? The answer is simple. In the 14th century, the French King Philip 4 »fought» with Pope Boniface 8. The king's demands were directed at preventing the pope from interfering in the »worldly» life. In turn, the pope wished to subdue Philip 4. The king, of course, did not obey the pope, for which he was taken prisoner. The king needed a kindly person to obey him in everything. ? The residence of the popes in this connection was moved to the city of Avignon, which is in France.

In turn, Avignon was the propertyPopes, and this left a great imprint of Catholicism on the life of Avignon. The city of Avignon has long been known for the production of cotton material and silk craft. This city is the birthplace of light, thin, silky fabric, and in order to distinguish it from others, it was called poplin, which means papal or Catholic. At us this word undertook from France, as well as a material.

Poplin's linen is very thin, delicate andHas good strength. It is good in it that it is perfectly ironed. Wash things out of this fabric is better at a temperature of not more than 30 degrees, because at a higher temperature the material can sit.

Exist Linen bed dress. They are very environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, they have excellent strength. Sleeping on such a bed is convenient both in summer and in winter. Machine wash is also well tolerated, does not shed and does not turn yellow. Interesting property of lena - the longer it is used, the it becomes whiter. The downside of linen is that it crumples badly, it's hard to iron, besides, the price of such linen is expensive.

The following material, silk. The best silk, of course, is Japanese, but to find itIt is very difficult, and at a price it is much more expensive. Linen from it comfortable, because it creates a perfect balance between the body and the environment. Silk is a more expensive material, compared to linen and cotton. Silk is durable and resistant to cloth wear, but despite this, it is better to wash it with hands, with a water temperature of not more than 30 degrees. Drying is done without spinning.

Further, according to the plan, we have Artificial silk.

There is silk, which consists of silk for 85Percent, and the remaining 15 percent is satin. Linen, which was made of artificial silk, does not differ in touch and in appearance. The only thing that distinguishes it from the natural one is that it practically does not absorb moisture, and the air conducts very badly. Artificial silk does not sit down, does not molt, it is perfectly ironed and easy to care for. The price of such kits is still quite affordable for everyone. Also note kits Bed linen 3d From this material: they look extremely impressive and make it easy and simple to bring novelty to the bored design of the bedroom.

The last of the materials we will consider Polycotton.

This tissue can be of various kinds. It all depends on how much polyester fiber is part of the fabric. The price of lingerie depends on how much of the artificial fiber contains fabric - the more it is, the price of the product is cheaper. It is very easy to take care of polycotton, it does not crumple, and for a very long time retains its bright colors. The downside of this fabric is that it is capable of storing static electricity.
